Hi all, I want to change my front sprocket from 14t to 15t to ease the revs a bit - I saw on the website it was also a good idea to do this. In a possibl bid to save money, are the front sprockets the same as any other Honda? maybe a model that is more common - possibly CB250N? I have noticed on a few websites there is a 16t available as well, is this a good idea? or will it slow things down too much? Many thanks, Kelvin
the engine is an XL or XR, but there are differencess in the diameter of the outgoing shaft, so be sure to check this before ordering, cheers Jo.
The 15 tooth will hardly be a noticable drop in power,but the 16 tooth will loose a bit when coming to a hill. 16 will give better economy and maybe a higher top speed but will loose acceleration.
Did this on mine in '82 lovely, made 2nd, 3rd and 4th much more use able though 5th becomes overdrive
